Continuing the dump from last thread. I actually didn't find this much fanart. This picture in particular might drift away from the artstyle I'm aiming at, but for a never ending story dump there has to be at least one post about the Childlike Empress or the Moonchild.

These are mostly illustrations from the books 'Rules Of Summer', 'The Arrival' and 'The Lost Thing' which he all wrote and illustrated himself. Especially 'The Arrival' is a really good read even for the average person here.

thank you, back to you. your comment was a joy to read.

Rovina is amazing thank you! Her style is a bit darker and far more dynamic, i love it.

And now a Jansson dump. I hope I can somehow properly explain my admiration and fascination for her and her work, so some of you decide to pick up one or two books of her.

First thing first. Perhaps some of have read their books or watched the animated series. There are actually two of them, one produced from the 70s in the renowned studio Se-Ma-For, the better version in my opinion and the 90s version produced by Dennis Livson in Japan, which is pretty up there in quality, too. He was btw the same one who produced the series Alfred J Kwak, one of my favourite children's series in existence. Maybe some of you remember those.

File: ToveJansson_Moomins10.png (4MB, 1100x1600px) Image search: [Google]

4MB, 1100x1600px

However the thing with the moomins is, and you might have noticed it while watching the series, that the books are actually dark as fuck, even for adult standarts.

File: ToveJansson_Moomins22.jpg (508KB, 1228x1792px) Image search: [Google]

508KB, 1228x1792px

Having lived through the war and having experience all the horrors coming with it, she started writing about the moomins as some sort of ventile. One scene which shows that in particular is, when the moomin family flees into a cave, to save themselve from a comet, that is threatening to destroy the moominsland. When it finally hits the earth she describes what the moominsfamily experiences

"The whole mountain shook and trembled around them and the comet howled as if terrified, or as if the Earth itself was screaming."

"They lay still and held on to one another for a long time. From outside came the rolling echo of shattering rocks and soil. Time became dreadfully elongated, and each of them felt they were quite alone."

What I love about her work is the reality and the honesty. I'm all for confronting kids with the real horrors of the world early. Because they feel the same stuff too, but have no real possibility to express it.

File: ToveJansson_Moomins7.jpg (2MB, 2876x2232px) Image search: [Google]

2MB, 2876x2232px

Especially her first two books, the moominfamily goes through all sorts of natural disasters. There is this feeling that everything could be destroyed in just a seconds all lingering over the books. She also deals with other heavy stuff like for example PTSD and social anxiety.

File: ToveJansson_Moomins8.jpg (1MB, 1024x996px) Image search: [Google]

1MB, 1024x996px

Moomintroll goes through all kinds of downs, he gets depression, identity crises and so on. Other characters go through midlife crises, or have OCD and so on.
And the kids actually responded on that. She stated, that she got many letters from kids who were timid, anxious and lonely. She herself said this:

"In every honest children's book, I think there is an element of fear. Anxious and self-confident children alike are unconsciously drawn to it, and to destruction."

File: ToveJansson_Moomins6.jpg (744KB, 2820x1951px) Image search: [Google]

744KB, 2820x1951px

But what makes her books childfriendly, is that they have always some kind of positive outlook.

Some trivia I found somewhere about how the moomins came into life. actually she draw the prototype of Moomin, when she was arguing with her brother about Immanuel Kant. So she draw "the ugliest creature imaginable" and wrote under it "Kant". Then the Moomin looked a bit more spookier thant the famous white and plumpy version.

File: ToveJansson_Moomins23.jpg (694KB, 1596x912px) Image search: [Google]

694KB, 1596x912px

Every character is somewhere oriented on a real person, an alter ego, or a side of herself or a personified idealisation. For example the Moomintroll is her main alter ego, Snufkin is inspired by her boyfriend from the early 1940s Atos Wirtanen, Tiuhti and Viuhti are the personified relationship between her and her partner Vivica Bandler. The most interesting character might be however the Groke, who pursues Tiuhti and Viuhti and who is speculated to potray the then homophobic society in Finnland threatening them and their relationship.
I think the Groke is just everything that is lonely and unhappy in a human. Everyone tries to avoid her, but no one can. I actually feel sorry for the Groke, since everything she wants is affection, but I was just creeped out by her when I was a kid.

Snufkin is one of my favourites, too.
He's incredibly independet and doesn't give a fuck about anything. He's wandering all the time because he doesn't like it to be bound to one place and he can't stand the concept private property. He is the antithesis to Sniff, who is Money grubbing and likes to push all responsibility off him.

Her Moomins are not only dark and heavy of course. They're still children's books and handle a variety of topics like Familiyrelationship, defining your identity, acting morally and contain a lot of interesting views and recommendations about life and growing as person.

Last Moomin pape. I fucking adore Tove Jansson, she was an incredibly interesting personality. In 2014 she would've been 100 years old but she already died in 2001. I wish I could tell more about her or the moomins but I've already forgotten some parts of her biography, which is an interesting read too, and the moomin series. I need to reread them.

Damn I got it confused here is the last one. The one posted is from her other book 'The Dangerous Journey

This book does feature the Moomin Valley, but it's actually about Susanne who is kind of an adaption of Alice from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

She also made an adaption of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland too.

"It is simply this: do not tire, never lose interest, never grow indifferent—lose your invaluable curiosity and you let yourself die. It's as simple as that.”

I think posting a quote of her is some nice roundup. Yeah that was fun today.

It's getting a bit tumbler-y but I think those papes are nice. Those are illustrations by Dan Ah Kim.

500KB, 1300x939px

Moving on to Kaatje Vermeire. She has illustrated books since 2007

File: KaatjeVermeire4.jpg (217KB, 1024x957px) Image search: [Google]

217KB, 1024x957px

Her illustrations are sort of collage like and soft, wich make them appear kind of naive and innocent

Lol wrong picture for that description ha.

I like how she is able to keep her art kind of real. Like how she is able to potray old people really authentic with a more fragile and limited physique

Now moving on to Lisbeth Zwerger. She is known for being the go to illustator for tales and classic novellas like for example from Hans Christian Andersen or the Grimm Brothers and has been active since 1977.

Which papes so far have you liked the most?

Alright back again! Hopefully some of the papes I'll post today are more of your taste. But I'll still start with something rather soft and cute, because someone will be into this style.

File: SatoTone_LeVoayageDePippo.jpg (1MB, 2448x2448px) Image search: [Google]

1MB, 2448x2448px

These are taken from Le Voayage de pipo, illustrated by Sato Tone.

Her illustrations have this kind of wonderous feel to them. I think children can identify with that really well.

I usually try to avoid stuff that is too cutesy, but I like Sato Tones artstyle. I still wish she would do more illustrations like this one.

The next posts will feature David Sala's illustrations. He mostly collaborated with the author Jean-François Chabas when working on children's books. Pape showed is taken from the book 'Le Bonheur prisonnier'. I don't know why I feel the need to post these walls of texts all the time.

Last pic for today. Tomorrow the remaining Sala papes and different artists. I forgot to learn for an exam in a week. Shit. Also I just don't understand this disappearing captcha meme. However, I hope you liked at least one of the papes here so far. Or even better, considered to buy the book.

Ah the Last Unicorn. This was the only pape I found. Since the story was written as a non illustrated novel initially, this wasn't that much suprising.
